Strange fit
I am typically an XS, this fit well up top but the bottom of the sweather was too long - I had the boatneck sweater from previous years and it was a much better fit. Had to return....

Classic Look
I normally wear a size 12, but purchased a M in this sweater per the size fitter recommendations. It fits well and can be dressed up or dressed down. I find it most comfortable with a thin layer underneath.

Beautiful addition to my closet
I must own close to a dozen GH cashmere sweaters. I love how they are super well made and incredibly beautiful with the colors and styles. This did not disappoint. I ordered the raspberry boatneck cashmere sweater after seeing in on clearance. It's a beautiful color and makes a great addition to my closet.

Twice as nice
Saw this on sale, and bought it in the geranium/purple stripe, and wore it to lunch the day it arrived. Rich color, good length, great styling and quite flattering. Went back to the website and bought the barley/cream stripe on an even better sale! It's lightweight, yet warm and perfect for year round here in California..

good for sale price, not quality cashmere
The fit and color of this jumper are great, I bought the small, I'm 5'6, 115lbs. I'm very pleased I paid the sale price as the quality of the cashmere isn't as I had hoped it would be from GH. It's the first cashmere item I've bought from here. I have a cashmere sweater from athleta and when comparing the sweater fabrics the athleta one is 10 times softer and just feels a much higher quality.

I have never completed a product rating before but I am hoping Garnet Hill reads this. I own 4 of these sweaters, 2 I purchased last winter and 2 this winter. The colors are beautiful and the shaping is just right for me and I LOVE that they are available in petite sizes. The quality of this year's sweaters, however, is not as good as last year's. The weight of the cashmere is not as good, I've noticed some pilling already, and one of my sweaters shrunk a little after being washed in cold water and laid flat to dry. I would have given last year's sweater's 5 stars across the board, but this year's only 4 stars. GH, PLEASE continue to offer high-quality sweaters in petite sizes. I live in Michigan, wear a sweater every single day during the (long) winter, and don't mind paying for things that look great and last!

It is impossible to tell from the reviews, but the majority seem to say it is too large and go down a size. I wear a size 2 on top so there is no way to go down if your XS is too big! I bought 2 cashmere sweaters last year in XS and they fit perfectly, but when you changed your sizing, it seems that you made the XS larger so they don't fit anymore.

The reviews spoke of it being light weight but I am thinking that this review was for the spring collection. I am looking for a winter weight - is this more substantial than the spring collection? (I do not like to layer)

One reviewer stated that the sweater was see through... I am looking at the darker solids... is this see through?

Answer:

This sweater is not a heavy weight sweater. It is a classic 2-ply cashmere. You should not be able to see through the darker colors. Please click on the measurements screen to see the sleeve length for your size.
